If I am correct, this is the one listed with the pressure gauges that I 
don't have.  Anyone know if a supplier would carry these gauges and how 
many arms/legs they would set me back? Zalenda?

I really just want to know if it works at all, and set it by the "seat of 
pants" method that AUDIDUDI described to me a while back.  He said, in 
short, tighten the spring for more rear brake bias/oversteer and loosen 
for less rear bias/understeer.
